I am a trader or at least that is how i see myself. I trade on binance, okex, idex, mercatox, bittrex, houbi and some other exchange. Lately i notice a lot of new crypto exchange popping here and there. And as much as i know and safe guard my password and secure my account with 2fa, I am still curious of the factors other traders consider when they are signing up on a new exchange. Would love to know some of your key factors so i might look into those too.
The biggest factor is popularity. First of all, an exchange won't be recognize or praised by a lot of people if they don't see or feel the service that they want. So you don't really need to research so much into this area because the users will give you feedbacks that you need to consider or not when you look for a good exchange.
